We’re Here to Make History Fun (and Easy).

Our Mission

The Great History Challenge was founded with one big idea: history should be as exciting to celebrate as sports.

​

We believe every student deserves the chance to feel the thrill of competition, the pride of achievement, and the joy of being recognized for their talents.

Our Story

We started GHC because we saw what teachers already know:

​

Students light up when they can show what they know.
 

Teachers want extracurriculars that are worth the effort (and not just another burden).
 

Schools and communities want to celebrate academic achievement just like athletics and the arts.
 

So we built a competition that’s fun for kids, simple for teachers, and powerful for schools.

Our Promise to Teachers

We respect your time. That’s why the Great History Challenge is designed to be:

 

Easy to run (materials and guidance included).
 

Flexible (works in classrooms, schools, or districts).
 

Supportive (you’re never on your own).

I felt completely supported running the Great History Challenge — all the materials were ready, clear, and easy to use. It made hosting stress-free so I could just enjoy watching my students shine.
